What is the best DWG viewer?

[julboese]

We have someone who doesn't need any cad fuctionality just the ability to view dwgs and occasionally print. I got to looking and found there are various versions of free DWG viewers. What is the easiest one to use? Esp for someone who doesn't normally use cad? I looked on cnet.com (if anyone is wondering what versions i am looking at). I would love some feedback before we put anything on anyones computer. Would prefer free as well.

Trueview is best. Follow the link provided in the reply above mine. We use it here. It can read "regular" dwg files, CIVIL3D files and more. It is free. The 2009 version will even be able to measure things in the viewer. NICE!!

We suggest DWG TrueView (Autodesk) to our clients that need to view a .dwg file.

Or we convert the drawing to .pdf for them to view and print.
